Thread: Fuel Flow

    Fuel Flow

    I run 65% power and lean to 7.6 gph fuel flow. However... the fuel flow seems to "wander" between 7.2 and 8.2 gph, seems I am always adjusting the misture to try to get it to settle down. Anybody else having this issue?

    Are you fuel inujected? I find that the bellcrank in the mixture control adds some slop to the system.

    Yes, but the "slop" should not allow more than about .3 gph, I find fuel flow when set to 7.5 gph will go as low as 7.1 to 8.1 gph.
